Why is Maddie embarrassed by the questions Peggy asks Wanda? Is she also like Wanda, or is she different?

Maddie was embarrassed by the questions Peggy asked Wanda because she was poor herself. She usually wore old clothes, which were handed down to her by someone else. She did not feel sorry for Wanda but worried that later, everyone would start teasing her too. She thought she was different from Wanda in the sense that she would never claimed that she had a hundred dresses and did not live in Boggins Heights. She was not as poor as Wanda. Yet she was afraid that the others might mock her too.
